Bayesian Generalized Linear Model

GENERALIZED LINEAR MODEL

Idea: extend the idea of linear modeling to cases where either 1. the relationship between X and E(y|X ) is not linear 2. assumption of a normal distribution is inappropriate

Bayesian Generalized Linear Model SEEDS EXAMPLE • We want to look at the relationship between germination and both seed type (73 or 75) and root extract (bean or cucumber).

LOGISTIC REGRESSION MODEL

p(r i|p i,n i) = Bin(p i,n i), where

(p i) = α0+α1 xi1 + α2xi2 +α12 xi1 xi2

Bayesian Generalized Linear Model Definition We say that a generalized linear model is overdispersed if the model allows the possibility of variation beyond that of the assumed .

Bayesian Overdispersed (Random Effects) Logistic Regression Model

• p(r i|p i,n i) = Bin(p i,n i), where

logit(p i) = α0+α1 x1 + α2x2 +α12 x1x2+b i

2 2 • p(b i|σ ) = N(0, σ )

HIERARCHICAL LOGISTIC REGRESSION MODEL

For the ith student in the jth neighborhood, (I) • p(Y i,j |p i,j ) = Bern(p i,j ), where logit(p i,j ) = Xi,j β + µj

(N) • µj = αj + Zjβ

• p( αj) = • p( β(I))= • p( β(N))=
